I build human-agent systems for real-world work.
My focus is user-aware agents: AI systems that remember responsibly, understand user context, model intent, learn preferences, and get useful work done with fewer unnecessary interruptions.
- Remnic — open-source memory and context for user-aware agents
- Agentic commerce — AI agents, product data, checkout, ERP, and commerce operations
- Embedded AI-enabled commerce delivery — AI-native delivery for Magento and Adobe Commerce teams
Remnic explores the systems layer around user-aware agents:
- scoped memory
- provenance
- retrieval quality
- correction
- boundaries
- evals
- ask-versus-act decisions
- MCP / HTTP access
- Codex CLI, Claude Code, Replit, and other agent integrations
The goal is simple: agents that understand the people they work with well enough to help without constantly interrogating them.
I’ve spent 25+ years shipping commerce systems: development, architecture, deployment, client-facing strategy, Magento and Adobe Commerce, ERP integrations, release hygiene, developer education, and founder/operator work.
During the Magento 2 transition, I spoke at 20+ conferences helping developers understand and deploy a major platform shift. AI agents are the next version of that pattern: powerful technology that needs practical workflows, clear boundaries, and real-world deployment discipline.
